I take my NCLEX the first week of March and I am starting to panic. I have taken Kaplan, read the "course book" that accompanies it, I have also been doing some Saunders and reading a book my school gave us (ERI).
I have been doing the Kaplan question trainer CD, and scoring around 70%. Today I did some practice tests on the QBank that goes with Kaplan, and scored 60% on both .
I don't know what else to be doing right now. I study some every day, and there isn't any glaringly obvious content areas I am clueless on.
Any words of wisdom so I can focus and hold it all together in these last few weeks?
Thanks for listening,
Jen

I had alot of diets and Lab values along with priority questions.
Good Luck.

Hang in there! Just took the NCLEX today. It can be really nerve-wracking trying to gauge your preparation. Just keep going over as many practice questions as you can. If you identify a weak area (for me it was women's health/childbearing) you can hit that section heavily again in the Saunders book.
When you do take the NCLEX, don't panic afterwards either. I think we all walk out of there in a little bit of a daze.
